The 49ers are signing Clinton-Dix to a contract Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Clinton-Dix spent time with the Cowboys last offseason, but he hasn't appeared in regular-season action since playing 16 games for the Bears in 2019. The 28-year-old will bring depth to a safety room that currently has Jaquiski Tartt (toe) and Tony Jefferson (hamstring) nursing injuries, and Tarvarius Moore (Achilles) out for the year.
